It's All Perfect (Briefly)


Tom has Let's Play work wrapped up and time to sit on the front porch and read a book. Tom has not had to do a single hospital run and only one trip for water drops down the dreaded Lockhart Basin. A very, very quiet year, so far and a very, very perfect day as evening comes.

As Tom opens his book, he hears footsteps coming up the drive but can't yet see anybody. There are two possibilities. Somebody is broken down. Please let that be it. If they don't have a large backpack, they are broke down. If they do, they are wanderers on the Hayduke or Discovery Trails and they will ask Tom to do water drops, on Lockhart Basin. Lockhart doesn't like Tom. Tom doesn't like Lockhart. Tom has left parts of two ATV's and one trials bike on that trail

He has a large back pack, his name is Jerrol, he's from Germany, hiking the Hayduke, and he needs help. He can't hike 50 plus miles without water. He wants to know if Tom will do water drops for him?
